Chapter 228 Mausoleum
Author: Tingzen
The Green Protector stopped outside the cave. They were not qualified to enter the tomb.
Su Ying and Xiao Jin looked at each other and slowly walked into the cave.
The cave doesn't look big from the outside, but after walking in, they find that the cave is very spacious, and there are beads lighting inside to guide them all the way down.
The cave was winding and the two of them walked cautiously for nearly a quarter of an hour before arriving at a stone door.
Xiao Jin observed the situation around the stone door, and finally gently turned a shelf with beads next to the stone door.
With a "click", a gap opened in the stone door in front of him. After a while, a stone door for two people to pass through side by side appeared in front of them.
When Su Ying was about to walk in, she was held back by Xiao Jin.
She looked back at him doubtfully.
Xiao Jin didn't say anything, he just pulled her behind him and walked to the front.
Su Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at his strong and broad back, feeling as if her heart had been scratched by a cat.
Behind the stone door was a row of stone stairs winding down. The ladder went downwards. The two walked for a long time before they came to another stone door.
After pulling the button of the stone door and opening it, a strong golden light came from the stone room, almost blinding Su Ying.
Su Ying squinted her eyes slightly, then slowly opened them after adjusting to the light, and followed Xiao Jin in.
Even though both of them had seen the world and had experienced ups and downs, they were blinded by the mountains of gold, silver and gems inside.
What kind of mausoleum is this? It's clearly a treasure house. No wonder the previous queens didn't let anyone else get close to this place.
Su Ying curiously stepped forward and picked up a gold cup and weighed it. After confirming that these things were real, she suddenly wanted to laugh three times.
Damn, I’m rich!
Xiao Jin gathered his thoughts and cast his gaze on a large bookcase beside him.
He walked over and picked up a book and read it. It actually wrote about how to control people, as well as some unique secret techniques.
"Puppet book?" Su Ying picked up a book and read it. Isn't this the method of training those children that she saw in the field that day?
"The rulers here have used various trainings to block the minds of those people, almost making them lose the ability to think for themselves. They only know how to obey orders and be loyal to the queen." But the rulers have forgotten that they only have one of their own.
, but the queen can be many people.
This is why those people came to claim their master so quickly after she captured Wei Ji.
Su Ying turned her eyes and looked at a large and thick book. Curiously, she walked over and opened it and saw that it was the origin of Tiankui City recorded in it.
A hundred years ago, this place was already a place where prisoners were exiled, but there were not that many people there. Then a woman suddenly appeared and integrated all the prisoners, and it took them thirty years to establish Tiankuizhi.
city, and established himself as emperor.
But it didn't take long for the Queen to find that as she grew older, people around her became more and more cynical, and some even had thoughts of rebellion, in order to prevent the Tiankui City she had worked so hard to build from being overturned.
, she found a secret book of puppets from somewhere, and began to recruit young children into the city, and began to train them to turn them into mindless puppets whose life and death she could decide.
In this way, she doesn't have to worry about her throne being taken away.
But people will eventually grow old and die. When she felt that her life was not long, the queen chose a person she liked to succeed to the throne. This person was the previous queen before Wei Ji.
The previous queen upheld the purpose of the previous queen and continued to promote the puppetry technique. The normal people who were in the city before either died or were gradually expelled. From then on, Tiankui City became what they see now.
appearance.
It's just that the previous female queen is recorded above, and there is no record of Wei Ji after that.
The booklet also did not indicate who the previous queen preferred to succeed, and it did not even mention this matter.
Su Ying counted the time. When the first queen passed away, it was probably the thirtieth year after Tiankui City was completely established. The second queen was not very old when she succeeded to the throne. Until records were discontinued, she was only three years old.
Less than ten years, taking into account the lifespan of the first term, this second term is almost half shorter.
It is also recorded in the book that the new one can succeed by defeating the previous one. This is a formal competition, not a fight like she and Wei Ji.
However, there is no record of Wei Ji in the book. This woman may have usurped the throne.
Su Ying closed the book and continued to search through other books, hoping to find some records about Wei Ji, but after searching around, there was not even a single word.
This person seemed to appear in Tiankui City out of thin air.
"Xiao Jin, you never think that the city of Tiankui was given to us by God." When she couldn't find it, Su Ying stopped worrying and closed the book and looked at Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin looked at her and suddenly laughed.
When he smiled, Su Ying was stunned. She had to admit that he looked really good when he smiled.
"why are you laughing?"
"You just said 'we'."
Su Ying frowned, is there anything wrong with this wording? Does this guy still want to monopolize it?
"Boy, you'd better not have dangerous thoughts, or I'll make you a puppet."
Xiao Jin was not afraid of her threat at all, "It's not impossible to be your puppet."
Su Ying looked at his increasingly brighter black eyes, always feeling that there was something in his words.
She changed the subject and said: "There is no record in the booklet where these gold and silver jewelry came from."
"No matter how he got here, he belongs to us now."
Su Ying thinks this makes sense, but she is still a little worried about putting things here. She will have to find a chance to hide some of them in the space next time. Space is the safest place.
As they walked inside, they found that there was indeed a coffin inside. The surface of the coffin was also extremely luxurious, and it was inlaid with various gems.
Su Ying felt that this should be the coffin of the first queen.
However, there was only one coffin, which made Su Ying more certain of her guess that Wei Ji's position as queen could not be obtained normally.
"Get out first." The tomb has reached the end of the coffin section.
Su Ying nodded and followed Xiao Jin out of the cave.
Protector Green saw the two people coming out and stepped forward respectfully.
"Go back first and let me follow everyone to the main hall."
"yes."
The city of Tiankui has been captured, and the next question is how to take over this place and turn it into your own territory.
Qiao Yang and the others also walked around the city. The buildings here are all majestic. You can imagine how much manpower and material resources were wasted during the construction. It is not an exaggeration to say that this city is made of corpses.
